About this arrangement

Concert Band - 3.5 SKU: CN.21650 (from 'New Orleans Symphony'). Composed by Carl Holmquist. Duration 5:10. Published by C. Alan Publications (CN.21650). From the composer of Play!, winner of the 2007 Claude T. Smith Composition Contest, comes Lament, the somber third movement of his Symphony No. 1: A New Orleans Symphony. Lush harmonies, mournful melodies, and a minor-key setting of the hymn tune Nettleton depict a disillusioned New Orleans in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. The piece stands alone on its own, but can also be paired with Play!, the final movement of the Symphony, which represents the resurgence of the vibrant Crescent City.
